Honestly its more of the culture of each state surrounding guns, the general feeling i get from my state is people have them at home, hunt, have target practice in their back yard or go to a gun range, but i have never met anyone or heard of anyone having a concealed gun, not saying obviously there arn't, but it seems very unlikely and something that nobody really feels they need to feel "safe". But like i said its different, homicides with guns in Maine are pretty rare, just homicides in general in Maine are rare while they are more prevalent in say Texas.

I threw the 'guns in home' in there because I read into your statement as "if you need a gun to protect yourself (anywhere) you have a small penis." I realize your comment was a joke of sorts, but yeaaaah.
You probably don't know of anyone who carries because: 1. Most people don't tell anyone they carry. 2. A small percentage of the population carries. 3. Your circle of friends is mostly college age people who can not legally carry anyway. (assumption)
Honestly, I don't walk around scared for my life. I live in a good neighborhood in a good city, I just like to be prepared. And since I handle and own guns it's not too much trouble for me to go through the process of getting a CHL and carrying one of the weapons I already own. I understand this could seem like a great hassle to someone who does not handle firearms regularly and would have to purchase a weapon, train with said weapon, etc for the .01% chance of needing to use it in their lifetime. For me, it's not a big deal.
You may be correct about that last part.
Cell, I'm all over the ideological spectrum.
